There is very little left until the Copa América 2024 begins. On June 16, Argentina and Canada will face each other in Atlanta, in what will be the opening match of the competition. The reigning champions (both at continental and World Cup level) arrive as great candidates.
This Monday, May 20, Lionel Scaloni announced the preselection of 29 players for the friendlies prior to the start of the tournament. And the absence of a name particularly caught our attention: Paulo Dybala.
The Roma player had a great season, in which he played 35 games, with 16 goals and 10 assists. Nothing bad. However, he was not enough to be on the Argentine coach’s payroll.
Gastón Edul, a renowned journalist who usually has good information about what is happening around the Argentine team, reported that Dybala has already received a call from the coaching staff in which they informed him that he will not be in the United States to defend the title obtained in Brazil. three years ago.
The exact reason for the absence of the “Joya” on Scaloni’s list is still unknown. In principle, one reason could be the state of health of the player, who has been injured frequently this season.
At the same time, in recent years Argentina has developed a lot of talent from the midfield forward. And everything seems to indicate that Dybala is not one of the coach’s favorites.
